About us

Highland Wholefoods is a workers co-operative situated in the city of Inverness. Founded in 1989, we have a total of 11 worker/members. The company is wholly owned by its employees and is democratically run with a non-hierarchical structure. We supply vegetarian, vegan, organic, ethical and environmentally friendly food, drinks and household products to the Highlands, islands and north-east Scotland.

Why are we special?

We supply only the most ethical wholefood products available

We have established trading relationships with co-operative producers locally, nationally and globally

We have always supported fair trade and organic issues – both are fundamental to our existence, they are not just issues of convenience or “jumping on the bandwagon”

We are fully supportive of the anti GM movement and have been involved since its inception

We were one of the first companies in this area to hold a Soil Association Organic Licence

We believe that ethically minded consumers, when given the choice, can change the world for the better

We believe that good healthy food should be available to all, and we endeavour to deliver this to consumers in even the remotest areas
